Moms love Littler Mendelson

San Francisco-based Littler Mendelson, which has an office in Melville, was named one of the top 50 law firms for women by the Working Mother blog.

The blog chose its winners based on applications from firms with 50 or more attorneys. All were selected based on 2008 data and were evaluated on their workforce profile, family-friendly benefits and policies, flexibility, leadership, compensation, and their advancement and retention of women, among other factors.

According to the blog, Littler was chosen because:

From 2004 to 2008, 65% of its associate hires were female, as were 45% of its lateral counsel hires and 25% of its equity partner hires. But that’s only part of the Littler Mendelson tale. Leadership training targets women lawyers across its 46 U.S. offices, and the firm offers groups for women and lawyers of color.

“Working Mother got it right by including Littler Mendelson on its “50 Best Law Firms for Women” list,” said Lisa Griffith, an associate in Littler’s Melville office. “Littler allows me to better meet the challenges I face as a working mother – permitting me to work a flexible schedule, which, in turn, helps me to manage my responsibilities at home.”

A good-humored present that makes the person who uses it look silly, this mug is just plain white and looks ordinary until one lifts to drink, revealing an animalвЂ™s nose. It can be a great gift to prankster friends. Different nose prints are available including a rabbit, dog, pig, monkey or tiger design. Available at LazyBoneUK for $14.14.
